OWL TEA HOUSE 14-QUART GRANITE DISH PAN 4(o j tMtMiiiiiiiniinnimiiiiiiMiimnimiHMi ID DECISION HINGES ON THE VALIDITY OF A DIVORCE. JL Quarter ttectiou. Valued at Over Five Thousand Dollars, is Involved Question to Rataed of Priority Between Divorce and Passage of , Allotment Act The United Btates is a Defendant. Yesterday . papers were prepared here tor a suit in the United States circuit court that promises to be one of the most interesting cases Involv ing Indian rights ever tried. It Is the case of Wa-lits-pum. represented by R. J. Slater, versus the United States and Tse-lap-tae-lap. The de fendants are to be represented by the United States district attorney and T. G. Hailey. The suit is to secure possession of 10 acres of allotted In dian land, and the case hinges on the validity of an Indian divorce. Tse-lap-tse-lap was the wife, and Wa-llts-pum the sister of Sook-pop-up-kop-up, an Indian brave who was allotted the southeast quarter of sec tion IT, in township z. north of range 23, EL W. M., when the allotment was made by congress. The land, if it could be sold, would bring from JSuuo to 16000. The land is now held by Tse-lap-tse-lap, who claims the property by right of being the widow of Huok-pop-up-kop-up, and . having no children. The suit to oust the widow & brought by the sister on the ground that before Sook-pop-up-kop-up was divorced from his wife according to the Indian custom, which consisted of a simple desertion and the taking of another squaw. Should this claim be proven, the title to the land will then pass to the sister. Wa-lits-pum. However, before the case can be jon it must be proven that the Indian divorce was obtained before the pass age of the allotment act, for the law provides that those given allotted lands shall thereby become citizens and subject to the civil and criminal laws of the state in which they reside. It is maintained by the attorney fa jthe widow that the supposed divorce was secured subsequent to the pass age of the allotment act. Jo ail suits In which title to Indian lands Is involved, tfea United States is made a participant in the case, .and In the above case the United States attorney or his deputy will act with the defence.

VOGEL TELLS OF LAND FRAUD INVESTIGATIONS. 'Evidence Before tite Grand Jury Was So Overwhelming and Undeniable That the Jury Could Ma Avoid Re turning Indictments No Persecu tion of she Oregon Defecation Has Been Carried On, as Out of 30 Men on the Federal Grand Jury, 17 Were Republicans, L. A. Vogel, of this city, who has been In Portland, on the federal grand jury for the past 45 days, re turned home this morning, the grand Jury having been dismissed until April 1. Mx. Vogel has been one of the most active and aggressive members, and Indignantly refuted the statements that F. J. Heney, the prosecutor of the land frauds, has "led the Jury around by the nose," as asserted by friends of the aroused conspirators. He has the highest praise. for Mr. Heney as a lawyer, and says that many of the Indictments were voted without Mr. Heney's knowledge, un til after the Indictment was returned. In every Instance where an Indict ment has been returned, the evidence was overwhelming, and although It may aeem to an .outsider that much of the evidence Is far fetched or un certain, yet Mr. Vogel asserts that such a mass of convincing and un questioned testimony has been pro duced, that it was Impossible to avoid returning Indictments In every case. He also denies that any part of the proceedings against either Senator Mitchell or Congressmen Hermann or Williamson, are part of a persecution, as out of 20 men on the grand Jury, last week, IT of them were republi cans, two democrats and one social ist, and in almost every case, the votes were unanimous. Mr. Vogel says that Mr. Heney and Mr. Burns, who are unraveling the cases, are simply doing a plain duty, outlined by the requirements of their offices, and -that they both exhibit a sense of justice of the highest degree, although some of the revelations made may seem to- be wrung from witnesses by unfair means. The grand Jury will convene again about April 1, after an adjournment to allow Mr. Heney and Mr. Burns to attend a trial of the Benson-Hyde I gang In Washington, D. C MEETINGS BEGIN TONIGHT.

In the record er's court they were each fined (5, but the sentence was suspended for each of them. The crown of womanhood is motherhood. But uneasy lies tin: head that wear the crown or anticipate this coronation, when there is a lack ol womanly strength to bear the burdens of maternal dignity and duty. The reason why so many women sink under the strain of motherhood is because they are unprepared. "I uiihesitatinitly advise expectant moth ers to use Ut. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip tion, "writes Mrs. J. W. G. Stephens, of Milk. Northumberland Co., Vs. The reason for this advice is that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre. senption is the best preparative for the maternal function. No matter how healthy and strong a woman may be, she cannot use "Favorite Prescription" an s prepara tive for maternity without gain of health and comfort. But it is the women who are not strong who best appreciate the great benefits received from the use of "Favorite Prescription." For one thing its use makes the baby's advent practically painless. It has in manv ru r-.l ., t fr I i, 7 ' , , - - -" v, uuyn ui suncr- ug to s few brief hours. It has chanced the neriod of inipi an A i ..... time of ease and comfort. The proprietors and makers of Doctor Pierces Favorite Prescription now feel fully warranted In offering to pay $y for any case of I.eucorrhea. Female Weakness, Prolapsus, or Falling of Womb, which they cannot cure. All the World's Dispensary Medical Association, Proprietors, of But falo, N.
